Customer Success Manager

Financial Services SaaS

London / Hybrid

£75,000 - £100,000 + Bonus + Benefits

This is a newly created role within a newly formed Customer Success function, designed to support the next phase of growth for a well-established financial-services technology platform.

The team will scale in three clear phases:
  1. Build the foundation – establish trusted, senior client relationships and embed best-practice platform usage
  2. Drive adoption and value – ensure clients are using the platform correctly, consistently, and in line with their operating model
  3. Commercial growth – identify and execute upsell and cross-sell opportunities as accounts mature and usage deepens

You will sit post-implementation, owning the long-term client relationship and acting as a trusted advisor across business, operational, and technical stakeholders.

This role has genuine influence: shaping how Customer Success operates today, and how the function evolves as the business scales.

The Role
  • Own and manage a portfolio of financial-services clients post go-live
  • Develop a deep understanding of each client’s operating model, workflows, and success criteria
  • Drive platform adoption, value realisation, and long-term retention
  • Act as a strategic partner to clients as their requirements evolve
  • Lead regular client reviews, health checks, and success planning sessions
  • Monitor usage, adoption, and risk signals to proactively address issues
  • Own renewals and identify value-led expansion opportunities
  • Work closely with Implementation, Product, Support, and Sales to deliver a joined-up client experience
  • Feed structured customer insight back into Product and Engineering teams

Building the Function
  • Help define Customer Success processes, playbooks, and best practice
  • Contribute to success metrics, reporting, and tooling
  • Act as the voice of the customer internally
  • Support the evolution of the function as the team grows in size and scope


Required Experience
  • Strong background in financial services
  • Proven experience in Customer Success, Account Management, Relationship Management, or Consulting
  • Demonstrable experience owning long-term client relationships in a B2B SaaS or enterprise technology environment
  • Solid understanding of fund managers, fund administrators, and settlement processes
  • Comfortable engaging with senior, technical, and operational stakeholders
  • Able to translate complex platforms into clear commercial and operational value
  • Structured, proactive, and outcome-focused approach
  • Comfortable operating in a scaling business where processes are still being defined

Compensation & Benefits
  • Base salary: £75,000 – £100,000
  • Performance-linked bonus
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Flexible, hybrid working
  • Strong investment in learning, development, and career progression
